Whimsical recycled art cd candles





I invented these ages ago, when I was first starting to get into recycle art. Using old cd's I make all manner of cool candles and sun-catchers. They look amazing in a bright window. Everytime I make one I can't believe how cool that crackled cd surface looks, and every single one is always completely different!

I love combining them with tin shapes, which I make from the metal from old soda cans.
I'm not sure if I will sell these though:the edges are really sharp!
